The Sims Medieval

In “The Sims Medieval" faith is a big part of life, if you want it to be. The two faiths that are available in the Kingdom can be added with The Sims Medieval Jacoban Priest and/or the Peteran Priest. They both worship the “Watcher" (and convince other Sims to do the same), but just who or what is this being?

The Sims Medieval Watcher

The Watcher is actually the player that is playing “The Sims Medieval."

In the game, the “Watcher" is worshiped by the Sims and especially those who have the Jacoban and Peteran faiths. However, the faiths don’t believe that their Watcher acts the same way. The Jacoban church strongly believes that the Watcher is merciless and quite vengeful for Sims that doesn’t do what they should. The Peteran church believes that the Watcher is forgiving and loves all of the Sims in the realm.

The symbol that is used to represent the Watcher is the eye. You can see this when playing by the point of view called the “Watcher’s Eye" that you can use to view the Kingdom. It also shows up in objects used to decorate buildings.

As the “Eye in the Sky" for the Kingdom, you control the main aspects of how the game is played, so go ahead and live it up and have your Kingdom be the best place a Sim could ask for!
